Ordered eleven rolls. Now that I've done it for the sole purpose of reselling, I won't be surprise if these don't go anywhere.

    I got a bag of Dee's last night. A preliminary peek showed a lot of dings. I can't wait to see the proofs!

    As far as them taking off, you bet, at least until they start showing up in bank rolls.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    I just checked and my Pee's shipped just this morning. I hope they look better than the Dee's.

  • What part of US are you dbldie55? Anyone else got any nickels from your bank? If so - what city/state? Just curious - my banks seems to be slow as molasses.

    thanks!

    His profile says Bozeman, MT.....so, unless he lied on that, I would think he got them around there..... image

    Depends on what you plan to do with them. If you are going to cherrypick the bank rolls are the better for price if you want to resell them either now or in the future the mint wrapper will bring a higher premium than a bank wrapper.

    The Mint has been moving up the expected date of shipping my order one day every day. On Monday it was the 22nd, Tuesday the 23rd, Wednesday the 24th and today the 25th.

    I opened 1 Mint P & D box and found D's better than P's


    Here is a link to Manorcourtman's thread where he opened 50 boxes 2000 coins and his analysis.. My small sampling would concur with his findings also.

    Who knows how the bank rolls are created?? Who rolls them?

    Are they shipped in big bags and then the reserves roll them?

    I can't image that the mint will roll these. If what I say is true, then the mint roll 'may' be 'better' because there was less 'handling' of the coins.

  • I got one roll(1 limit) from my Wells Fargo bank yesterday, and two from another bank in my city in Western Minnesota today. image Opened one roll not real impressed with the roll lots of dings best grade of any of the coins MS-64 at best. Kept the other two rolls back for future whatevers. The obverse looks great the Buffalo could have been a better design than what is depicted imageGave the first roll to my wife to give to her for the nursing home she works at for the residents bingo winnings. imageThey will enjoy it and hopefully bring back memories of the real coin with the impressive Buffalo.image

    I have not received my rolls yet but the ones in the proof set are beautiful. Best looking coin I have seen come out of the mint in years. IMHO
